I value the potential market we can cater as highly important, as this directly determines the size of the economical ecosystem we can build around F/OSS. While most of us are not in this to become rich, we all have to eat and feed the bills. If we want our project to have significant traction, we'll need to create a system that's self-sustaining.
Our system is already self-sustaining. We have been using GNU/Linux since 1992, and it is much better now than it was 18 years ago. Of course, we would like to make it technically better, and we want to liberate more users. There may be hard work to be done. But if you say we are incapable of achieving things we have in fact already done, that misrepresents the situation. _______________________________________________ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
